Restoring data
If you experience a problem, you can use the Windows Recovery Environment to repair your
Windows 7 files, or you can restore your computer to the state it was in when it left the
factory. If a serious problem occurs and Windows 7 will not restart, the Windows Recovery
Environment Repair will automatically start. Additionally, you can create your own backup
data archives and restore those later. For more information, see “Creating a backup archive”
on page 59.

the tablet.

Enter key.
3. Select a keyboard layout and click Next.
